If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones, read Red Rising by Pierce Brown: Political intrigue, high body count, and status-bending, court-toppling protagonists!

If you’re a fan of Penny Dreadful, read the Shades of Magic trilogy by V.E. Schwab: atmospheric, bloody, and full of magic, this series, like the show, is set in period London (four of them!).
